I know there's a lot of debate and feelings over how adequate some pet store employees are on teaching about fish and aquariums... especially in the larger stores like petsmart, petco, etc. I know personally at my local petsmart the employees don't know very much about aquatics.
Today I dropped in there and listened anxiously as an employee gave a silly speech about how bottled bacteria is important, and that you need to rinse filter media every 3 months in tap water.
Being concerned for the fish, and always wanting to inform people on proper aquatic care (even though my knowledge is little compared to most on this forum..), I had it in mind to approach them later and tell them how it really is.
Anyone have thoughts on helping a "fellow consumer" when you stop by the pet store?
